Hello,
I've got a set of headlight washers on my Laguna II which operate by a pair of jets mounted on 'stalks' in the front bumper, and the stalks move up in front of the lights when the washers are squirted.
The problem I've got is that when I squirt the washers, one of the jets pop up on its stalk as it should do, but then doesn't pop back down again into the bumper. Looks bloody stupid when you're driving around with the washer sticking out of the bumper!
It seems to be some sort of hydraulic system that pushes the jet up, but it's sticking when it reaches the top. I've tried lubricating it with WD40, and even a bit of Vaseline on the rod, but to no avail.
Any tips? Can it be fixed without getting behind the bumper? (there's a huge splash shield I'd have to remove to do this - a job I'd prefer to avoid)
Thanks in advance!
